Abstract Background Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a progressive lung disease with few treatment options. N -acetylcysteine (NAC) well-tolerated, inexpensive antioxidant and anti-fibrotic properties. The National Heart, Lung, Blood Institute (NHLBI)-sponsored PANTHER (Prednisone Azathioprine NAC therapy in IPF) trial confirmed the harmful effects of immunosuppression IPF, did not show benefit to NAC. However, post hoc analysis revealed potential beneficial effect subgroup individuals...
<b>Background and study aim:</b> This aimed to evaluate the feasibility of a novel laser system for endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) gastric epithelial neoplasia. <b>Patients methods:</b> A total 10 patients underwent ESD by single expert endoscopist. thulium 2-μm wavelength was used procedures. Instead using endoscopy knives, 550-μm flexible silica fiber inserted through working channel endoscope. <b>Results:</b> In all patients, completed only laser, without need knives. The median...
Background/Aims: Surgical resection, transplantation, and radiofrequency ablation (RFA) are generally accepted as amenable treatments for small hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Recently drug-eluting beads (DEB) which had several treatment advantages were introduced transarterial chemoembolization (TACE). The aim of this study was to evaluate feasibility safety DEB-TACE compared with RFA the single HCC.Methods: In pilot non-randomized trial, we assessed retrospective data 40 patients who...
Bilateral psoas abscesses extending to the gluteal muscle and intrapelvic area are uncommon. We present our experience with computed tomography (CT)-guided percutaneous catheter drainage for treatment of multiple aggressive in a diabetic patient. The completely resolved after procedures. Psoas abscess should be considered differential diagnosis older patients fever, flank or back pain, flexion contracture hip joint. CT scanning is useful method diagnosing abscesses, CT-guided an effective...
The objective of the study was to evaluate safety and efficacy percutaneous cholecystostomy (PC) in treating critically ill patients with emphysematous cholecystitis who were deemed poor surgical candidates.The Institutional Review Board exemption obtained for this retrospective study. Patients be operative candidates by surgeon underwent PC placement between May 2008 April 2017 at a single institution identified through medical records search. Demographics, laboratory values, imaging data,...
Figure 1. Noncontrast thoracic computerized tomography demonstrated air in the left ventricle. A 59-year-old woman who had recently returned from a trip to Laos presented emergency department with decreased appetite, altered mentation, and abdominal pain. Four days before admission, she developed vomiting nonbloody diarrhea. She was intubated mainly for airway protection admitted intensive care unit. Her medical history included poorly controlled diabetes mellitus gastroesophageal reflux...
Abstract There is little consensus in the literature about administration of crizotinib patients with end‐stage renal disease undergoing hemodialysis. A 69‐year‐old male patient, who was receiving regular hemodialysis due to disease, visited hospital symptoms repeated abdominal pain. no suspicious finding cancer within thorax. After biopsy, lymph nodes were identified as adenocarcinoma originating from lung following computed tomography (CT) scan, and ALK rearrangement confirmed. The patient...
Numerous medications have the potential to induce acute pancreatitis. However, isoniazid-induced pancreatitis is extremely rare. Drug-induced can be diagnosed by improvement after stopping drug and recurrence of when rechallenged. We present a case severe accompanied multiple large pseudocysts isoniazid treatment for pulmonary tuberculosis. confirmed that induced rechallenging cessation. Most previous reports been clinically mild forms, patient fully recovered with supportive management....
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) in the caudate lobe remains one of most intricate locations where various treatments tend to pose problems with regard optimal approach. Surgical resection has been regarded as effective treatment; however, isolated is strenuous and associated a high rate early recurrence. Percutaneous ablation might be technically difficult or impossible perform due deep location tumors adjacent large vessels. Treatment drug-eluting beads (DEB) can potentially enhance...
